WASHUKTOM
Washington, Sept. 16 (Autocaster)?
The two busiest members of the Cab
inet these days are the Secretary of
State and the Secretary of the Treas
ury. Mr. Hull has several problems to
solve involving America's relations
with the rest of the world, and Mr.
Morgenthau is working overtime try
ing to evolve a program for bringing
the books of the Federal Government
into balance within a reasonable time.
The State Department is studying
the neutrality resolution, passed just
as Congress adjourned, and trying to
figure out how it jibes with the Kellogg
peace pact, and whether it would pre
vent the sale of American foodstuffs,
mules and other war supplies to either
Italy or Ethiopia, if and when hostilities
actually begin between those nations.
Russia and Japan
Of greater concern, perhaps, is the
American-Russian situation. Our re
buke to Russia for breaking her prom
ise not to countenance plots to over
throw our government was received
with very bad grace by the Soviet gov
ernment. The possibility is not re
mote that, we may wind up by recalling
Ambassador Bullitt and breaking off
our lately resumed diplomatic rela
tions with Russia.
Perhaps more important than either
of those is the friendly negotiation that
is under way with Japan, concerning
the "dumping" of Japanese textiles on
our markets. Out of that may well
come a larger market for American
cotton, and a better understanding be
tween the two nations.
Secretary Morgentnau, who never
pretended to be a financier, has won
the respect and admiration of official
Washington by his devotion to the
study of Government finance, largely
under the able tutelage of Comptroll
er General McCarl. Mr. Morgenthau
is regarded as one in the Presidential
circle who can say "No" to Mr. Roose
velt. In a group which some declare
is composed chiefly of "yes men" such
a personality stands out. Mr. Mor
genthau has now begun to say "no"
to some phases of the Administration's
spending policy. He is working now,
and will be engaged for months, on a
budget plan to be presented to Con
gress in January.
The Federal deficit ? excess of
spending over incorrfe ? for the fis
cal year just ended was about 4 1-2
billions. The schedule in force for
the current year, to July 1, 1936, will
show a deficit of about 4 billions. The
Morgenthau plan is intended to cut
this to 2 billions for 1937, half a bil
lion for 1938, and then have a surplus
of half a billion in the fiscal year 1939.
Fulfilment of that program depends,
of course, on many things not clearly
foreseeable, among them the result of
the 1936 election. Few Democrats ad
mit to any doubts about Mr. Roose
velt's re-election, but on the other hand,
there has been a great uplifting of hope
in Republican hearts in the past fort
night.
Borah Gains In Favor
Perhaps the most interesting polit
ical phenomenon of the moment is
the strong swing all over the country
to Senator William E. Borah as the
favorite G. O. P. Candidate. The move
ment started with the "Young Republi
cans," curiously enough, as Mr. Bor
ah is past seventy and would be the
oldest man ever elected President, were
he successful.
The Borah qualities that seem to
appeal to the young Republicans are
his liberalism, in the classical sense
of that term, his independence of the
party machine, and his individualistic
point of view. Those same qualities
have made him many enemies inside
the party organization, so it is rather
significant to hear members and ad
herents of the "Old Guard' admitting,
now, that Borfih ITliS-- bS k good can
didate.
Here and Thers
Fifty members of Congress are go
ing on a junket to Hawaii and the
Philippines and on around the globe,
as guests of the Phillippine govern
ment. Vice - President Garner will
head the party, which will also include
Sepaker Byrns and Senator Joe Rob
inson, the Administration leaders.
Although there are no funds avail
able to start the Social Security pro
gram in full operation ? due to Sen
ator Huey Long's filibuster, the Presi
dent is looking over the field of 'avail
able persons for appointment to the
Commission which will administer the

retary Perkins may be its chairman,
resigning from her post as Secretary
of Labor.

THE FAMILY
DOCTOR
JOHN JOSEPH GAINES. M.D !
BLADDER TROUBLE
A friend in Oklahoma requested this letter.
These ailments are so named by ignorant laymen and unprincipled quacks ?
as if all "bladder troubles" were exactly alike!
They may vary from the most trifling irritation to the most ponderous,
incurable and malignant growth. Formerly, most bladder Irritations were
supposed to be caused by "uric acid." Great numbers of urates were found
in many such conditions.
With improved methods of diagnosis now, however, few mistakes need be
made. It would take much space, however, to cover even brief mention of
them. A heavy, foul sediment noticed in the urine on voiding should send
the patient post-haste to the doctor because that is no time for guess-work.
Heavy sediment in the urine, coupled with an evil-smelling odor, especial
ly if the patient be over 40 years of age, should send the sufferer to a capable
physician. Fresh urine that is "smoky" in color or even red, leads to the con
clusion that blood is present. Bloody urine is always a symptom of danger.
The first symptom of "bladder trouble" is frequency and burning on void
ing urine. This symptom calls for immediate relief and in elderly patients
should occasion a search for stone in the bladder or urinary calculi which is
distinctly a trouble of surgical importance.
The x-ray is one of the most essential pieces of apparatus in the diagnosis of
bladder diseases. Reliance should not be placed on quack nostrums no mat
ter from where they come. Care should be taken in the drinking of water.
Then see your physician.

International Sunday School Lesson t
for September 22, 1935.
GOLDEN TEXT: "Blessed is the
man that endurebh temptation; for
when he hath been approved, he shall
receive the crown of life, which the
Lord promised to them that love him."
James 1:12.
(Lesson Text: James 1:1-17.)
We study this week the epistle of
James, which some think was prob
ably the earliest epistle written. The
author is generally accepted to have
been James the brother of Jesus, the
Jewish leader of the early Christian
church in Jerusalem.
There are four men, apparently, by
the name of James referred to in the
New Testament. First, James, the son
of Zebedee, who with his brother,
John, and Peter were the three chief
members of the inner circle of dis
ciples who followed Jesus. Another
was also an apostle, referred to as
the son of Alphaeus. Then, there was
James the Little, the adjective prob
ably referring to his physical stature.
The fourth, the subject of our lesson,
was James thfe brother of Jesus.
James was undoubtedly a worthy
man but his relationship to our Lord
probably helped him reach the lofty
position he occupied in the early
church. From boyhood he had been
closely associated with Jesus and for
med one of the earliest groups of be
lievers following the Crucifixion. "No
doubt James sat by Jesus at his
teacher's feet in the town school,"
says H. C. G. Moule. "He had roved
with him on the hills; he had watched
with him the plowmen and the sow
ers; and the oxen of the threshing
floor; he had worked beside him, very
likely, at the bench, Joseph's appren
tice at first, then, possibly, the help
er of his brother Jesus as he succeed
ed his reputed father to be the very
stay of the widowhood of his moth
er."
In the stirring events which fol
lowed the crucifixion and Resurrectoin
of Jesus, James was identified. It is
recorded in 1 Cor. 15:7 that Jesus
"was seen of James." Later, according
to Gal. 1:19 Paul had an interview
with him. Acts 12:17 t?U how Peter,
after his escape from prison gave in
structions that information be carried
to James. This James soon became
recognized as the head of the Jerusal
em church. "Though not one of the
twelve," says PW.ip ScteS, "ne en
Joyed, owing to this relationship to
Mir Lord, and his commanding piety,
almost apostolic authority, especially
in Judea and among the Jewish con
verts." ,
So, we find James, in this authori
tative position when the question a
rose whether the new Gentile mem
bers should submit Co the Mosaic law.
Paul and Barnabas were sent from
Antloch to the Jerusalem church to
see if some decision could be reached.
"The problem was to save both the
liberty of the gospel and the author
ity of the Scriptures," says J. M. Stlf
ler. "Antioch stood for the former, the
teachers who came down from Jer
usalem for the latter. "God's Spirit
harmonised the two. If these teach
ers from Judea had been victorious."
says C. Campbell Morgan, "then thru
those earliest years, lasting until now,
there would have been division be
tween the Hebrew Church of Christ
and the Gentile Church of Christ, and
the bitterness caused by such division
would be mutually destructive and the
testimony of Christ to the wtorld
would be lost."
When the conference was held Pe
ter spoke first, calling attention to his
own experience with the descent of
the Holy Spirit upon Gentiles and that
the old yoke had been more than the
fathers could bear. Paul and Barna
bas supported Peter's views. Finally
James, quoted Amos 0:11-12, arguing
that the liberty of the Church to pre
sent the gospel to the Gentiles was
maintained but at the same time the
5
promises of God to the chosen people
had not been cancelled. Thereupon,
the suggestion of James as to the dis
position of the vexatious question was
adopted.
As said by Philip Schaff, James
"was an honest, conscientious, emin
ently practical, conciliatory Jewish
Christain, the rght man, at the right
place, at the right time. The mission
of James was evidently to stand in
the breach between the synagogue
and the Church, and to lead the dis
ciples of Moses gently to Christ. He
was the only man who could do it in
the time of the approach of the doom
of the Holy City. As long as there was
any hope of a conversion of the Jews
as a nation, he prayed for it and made
the transition as easy as possible.
When that hope vanished, his mis
sion was fulfilled."
"The Epistle of James is the most
Jewish writing in the New Testa
ment." says Doremus Almy Hayes. "If
we eliminate two or three passages
concerning references to Christ, the
whole Epistle might find its place just
as properly in the canon of the Old
Testatment as in that of the New
Testament, as far as its substance of
doctrine and contents is concerned.
That could not be said of any other
book in the New Testament. There
is no mention of the incarnation of
Christ. The word 'gospel' does not oc
cur in the Epistle. Nevertheless, the
Spirit of Christ is here. The princi
ples of this Epistle are the principles
of the Sermon on the Mount, to which
there are more references than can be
found anywhere else in the New Test
ment in the same space (about 15 ref
erences). It has to do with the out
ward life for the most part, and the
life it pictures is that of a Jew in
formed with the Spirit of Christ."
